Early in December my only vehicle had died and was too costly to repair. Being unable to get another one at the time, we had to do without one.

I was in the process of helping a fellow veteran with work in his basement for a few weeks. He would come and pick me up and then drop me off afterward. He asked about my situation on a car and I told him I was unable to get one for awhile.

I kept doing jobs he wanted done. In early April he gave me call. Since I was expecting he wanted more work done, I was caught by total surprise when he asked if I wanted a car. He told me he received a call from a woman who was looking to donate it to a veteran. I really thought he was pulling my leg at first , but he was serious and gave me the lady’s name and phone number.

The lady was Lydia Foreman and she said Isabel Elberts had wanted to donate her car to a veteran. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I seemed to be in a daze when I heard this, because things like this don’t happen to me. I was in shock when I was telling my wife what had just taken place. The next day I had the car in my driveway, all papers signed over to me.

Even in death this beautiful lady Isabel Elberts touches people she never knew with an act of extreme kindness.
God bless her and her family, they are truly angels in disguise.
